There is no forum from Armbian that I can ask question on Fire3. So I ask my questions here.

How can I hack on the Armbian kernel for Fire3 (modify device tree, merge touch screen support from FriendlyArm kernel 4.4, etc.)

Thanks,

Andreas

SPI bits exits in the common include file arch/arm64/boot/dts/nexell/s5p6818.dtsi and probably works ... so you just need to enabled them. A touchscreen will be a bit more challenging but it should be doable. Try to port bits from 4.4.y kernel and check if there is any special driver for it. And port that too.

We provide Fire3/T3+ images but we can't afford to provide end user support because only one person is working on it. That is too little and below support rules threshold. We have a special part of the forum for older or non-supported boards: https://forum.armbian.com/forum/25-peer ... l-support/
